<p>MY daughter is at CSOM as is a second semester freshman. YOU CAN GET A 3.8! She is doing really well in her honors acct and mgt classes ( first semester she her GPA was a 3.92 and is doing the same this semester). They are tough but you will be just fine. </p>
<p>She just turned down a guarantee transfer option from CORNELL ILR. She is really happy at Minn. I gather that you are and east coaster. So is she! If you are concerned about job placement back on the east coast do not be. They take really good care of their students who want to go east getting them placed in top tier firms. Business school placement is really good. If money plays a role for you this is a bargain! The school is getting better and more competitive. She works hard and plays hard. Less than she would need to do at Cornell and just get a 3.5. I hope that this is helpful</p>
